school Teacherk, Salaries.
COMMISSIONERS WEBB FAvoRs THE PRESENT METHOD
OF CLASSIFICATION

CUNH1BSl0NEE WEBB FAVURS PRESENT METHOD
OF CLASSIFICATION.
commissioner Webb was led to speak on the
subject or school estimates to-day. He said that
he considers the present method Of classifying the
teachers salaries to be the best that could be
adopted. The possibility OF favoritism being prac-
ticed In the administration Of the schools is re-
duced to a minimum under it, and the really COM
pe.ent teachers profit by IL to greater extent
than they probably would under any othe.. For
the present year ali salaries over $500 are classi
fed, but under that amount they are subject to
the longevity" system. Mr.. Webb says he is in
favor OF doing away with the longevity" feature
altogether; that IL Is very elastic and not 1air
basis on which to nix the salaries. The main Op-
position la Congress to the classification OF sala-
ries Is that there too many classes. The school
authorities have tried TO amend this, but find that
the list Will not admit OF contraction.

ST. Louis Globe Democrat


In January, 1864, while Confederate
troops were in winter quarters at Dalton,
Ca, there came big snowstorm, and
20, O0Q soldiers engaged in a regularly
organized snowballing. The Georgia
and South Carolina troops took one side
of small stream and the Tennesseeans
the other. The Tennessesans formed a
line of battle, their drums beating,
bugles blowing, colors flying and officers
mounted. Every soldier had a knapsack
full of snowballs. The Georgians
formed and prepared to make the attack
by crossing the branch. There were
10, 600 men on each side, and the scene
was very imposing. As soon as tho
Gei rgians crossed the branch they met q
terrific fusllade from the Tennesse eeans,
who were at home in the snow. The
commander of the Tennesseeans was
captured, but bold dash was made
by the Tennesseeans, and he was rescued.
The Georgians and South Carolinans,
being unused to the snow, were at a
great disadvantage, and were forced
back across the branch. As the Ten.
nesseeans crossed the branch they wet
their snow balls, and the next volley
fred at the Georgia and Carolina boys
was terrible In It's effect. Passing on,
the Tennesseeans captured the quart
ers and proceeded to loot the whole
sheebang, carrying off rations, tobacco
pipes and everything else that did moi
belong to the government.
